I don't wanna go...

[weston]

to childminder/to nursery...to anywhere that isn't by your side...DD1 is 4 in March. Happy as larry going to various childcare, a few weeks ago decided no longer happy there and now its tears, trauma etc....What is best approach to take??

What a shame. My DS is also 4 and has just started at nursery, (Sept). He loves it - so far! What about a short break for him while he has time to recharge himself. I'm sure you've already asked him if there's a problem but maybe with a bit of distance from childcare he will tell you what's bothering him. My little boy came home with a scratched face today and it's taken all evening to get to the bottom of it - it's so hard when they can't/won't tell you all the story. Have you spoken with the nursery/childminder, do they have any suggestions? Does he know all the Christmas parties are right around the corner, what a shame it would be to miss all the fun.

Sorry, obviously it's late and have just realised your little him s/b her.
